The present disclosure relates to the field of image capture and, moreparticularly, to an image capture assembly and an aerial photographingaerial vehicle containing the image capture assembly.

BACKGROUND

An image capture assembly, e.g., a terminal apparatus, such as a camera,a video camera, or a surveillance camera, carried by an unmanned aerialvehicle (UAV), or a unit arranged in a terminal apparatus for obtainingimages, usually includes a lens component and a circuit board coupled tothe lens component. The circuit board is generally provided with aplurality of functional circuits for implementing different functions,such as an image sensing circuit, a photoelectric conversion circuit, animage processing circuit, an image transmission circuit, a power supplycircuit, a control circuit, and/or the like.

As the image capture assembly becomes more compact and miniaturized, anintegration level of the functional circuits is getting higher. That is,the functional circuits need to be integrated in a relatively small andconfined space in the image capture assembly. Correspondingly, heatgenerated by the functional circuits is often difficult to dissipate. Asthe heat builds up to a certain degree, performance of the functionalcircuits is degraded, and thus overall performance of the image captureassembly is degraded. Damage to the image capture assembly may occur insome situation. Correspondingly, photographing performance of the aerialphotographing aerial vehicle that carries the image capture assembly isalso be degraded.
